About the host
Hosted by Ryan and Melissa Farley
As Super Hosts, the one word all of our guests repeat in their reviews is hospitality! Our little family of four, run The Grove and its 3 homes. Our goal is to teach our daughters the proper keeping of a home and the gift of hospitality. Our guests come once and re-book often. We love this opportunity of service to our guests!
Why they chose this property
Crenshaw is a small community within the city of Marion. This multi- generational farm once owned by a wonderful fellow Illini fan family, blessed us with the opportunity of purchasing it. Once you drive into the property you will immediately understand why this land is so special to us and our guests.
What makes this property unique
The Grove's 70 acres is in the middle of nowhere and less than 5 minutes from town. You will feel immediately relaxed surrounded by the tall Grove of trees but still can run to Target and your favorite restaurant, 3 minutes away.
